I'm trying to install X11 release 4 on a Sun 4/260 running Sun OS 4.0.3
and am having a bit of trouble.  Any help would be appreciated...

We already have X11 release 3 installed and I'm trying to install release 4
in its own subdirectories, i.e., not in /usr/local/bin.  I have compiled
and installed all of release 4 except two clients, xdm and xdpyinfo, which
would not install because of symbol reference errors - but I don't think
I need these two anyway.

So I put the new path in my PATH.  I try to run xinit and get

     ld.so: call to undefined procedure  _GetHostname from <mumble>.

So then I added the new library path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH and now I get

     ld.so:  libX11.so.0 not found.

The problem seems to be with the server since I was partially able to run
the new X client with the old X server.  Any ideas?
